i couldn't agree more, the fact that seme offered a marriage there must be more to it, knowing that the kid manifest a hyper dominant alpha, if i was yejun I'll be very vigilant when it comes to accepting that offer, i know it will benefit my son's well being but i should also know what would benefit me as well. just saying ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

----> First Doyoon's family cant easily take Siyeon away and remove his paternity rights.<---- if this were true then why is YeJun so fearful?!?
----> Or he could easily ask his best friend to marry him and register as Siyeon's dad coz it looks like his bff will do anything for both of them. <---- if legally registered then biological dad cannot come and fight for custody?!? (I don't know the rule on custody battles). Why was YeJun hesitant or did not take this route?!? He had this option for five years straight.
--->imprinting on him has something to do with his illness. <---- it's a genetic disorder only afflicting HYPER DOMINANTS.
---> He doesnt have to include marriage tbh, he can just say register Siyeon as his son that's it. This leads Yejun to an advantage to still be with Siyeon every step of the way and instill his values to him. <---- true, but I guess the conditions for his help is contingent upon acceptance of the marriage proposal. Although, DoYoon would have to be a COMPLETE DICK to withhold all of those resources if YeJun doesn't agree to the conditions.

You know how victims of scammers are not able to think logically at the moment right at the moment theyre being scammed? That's what's happening to Yejun, DoYoon is hitting his pressure points like his fear that his being taken away from him and make him feel that he is helpless and he is his only hope to keep his kid thus making him agree to his proposals. That's why he is not able to think straight at the moment. I think as well Yejun has not thought of taking the route of marrying his bff bec they are not romantically involved and looking at Yejun's personality, even if bff is willing he wouldnt want to impose on his bff specially he has helped him alot since he came back and ofc pride. Im no lawyer and it may differ in countries/states but if Siyeon is legally adopted by say for example if the bff married Yejun even if he is able to prove that he is the bio dad in court, the legal dad wouldnt just be stripped away of his legal rights as the legal dad. So they couldnt just take Siyeon away without a fight.
I dont wanna comment on further on the last 2 bec we still have not seen the entire story specially Doyoon's side what happened to him in the last 5 years, but basically my point here is that IF Yejun did not let his emotions get into him, he would think that Doyoon also needs something from him thus his proposal and he would likewise set conditions favouring him too before accepting the proposal.
But ofc this is not how Yejun is written by the author so we can only hope! lol

Sorry, lengthy response (of you're ok w the debate, ofc).
I totally get you. But if the route of the law could have helped him in that sense, prior to ever coming across DoYoon, that he could have taken that course of action. He had PLENTY of time to think before that, esp. given his fears. If his fears are legit, that powerful families can do as they want with their connections to judges and lawyers or just "money can buy" or some kind of pressure on them, then yes, he had a cause to have been fearful all of this time, regarding powerful families. As for DoYoon, it seems as if he could just use his pheromones to coerce YeJun into doing whatever he wants, now that YeJun is an omega AND his mate to boot. But he had decided to go the gentle route, treating both is mate and his (their) child very well. It's true YeJun has very little recourse in this area. If he doesn't give in to DoYoon and get to stay by the baby's side his baby will be taken away from him anyways. You can only play into someone's fears if it can become the truth. (See above regarding powerful families.) If not, then it's just Noah's own paranoia.
Regardless of Noah's desires, he still has responsibilities towards his child. And IF he doesn't agree then DoYoon would STILL have to play his part as the biological father, in providing everything for the child, except for allowing YeJun to co-parent, so at a minimum, the CHILD would still win. As far as YeJun is concerned, it is his choice if he agrees or not. It does suck. But, at the same time, the reverse can also be said, that DoYoon had been deprived of his (their child) for the past 5 years (or whatever amount of time he had deemed he had been missing from that child's life) and had waited for over a year for Noah to come to him for help, since SiYeon's illness first started, and around the time at which he had found out he has a kid, due to Noah's seeking a cure or treatment for their child.
Moving forward, yes, it would be good for Noah to set the conditions, but as of right now, I don't see what kind of leverage he can use. Maybe, say, no sex. Or something like that. No flirting??? No sex, maybe, but no flirting is pretty hard. No meddling in his personal life?!? Don't provide for him, only the kid ?!?Maybe, though he doesn't have MUCH of one.....He can demand more time with the child, although, I don't think DoYoon would draw the line on how much time YeJun spends with their child. Or when he is spending time w/ SiYeon, that DoYoon not be present!?! Let me know what kind of conditions YeJun can set forth as well. I'm curious to know what you and everyone else can think of!!!
And, like I said, if DoYoon decides to withhold his support and care for the child because Noah had decided to not go with him, then he's absolute, incredible trash!!!!
Or, he could be a devoted, caring father, regardless. One can always argue, well, he had known for (at least a year) that he had a child, why wait until now??? Well, then, why did Noah never seek him out?!? Because of his fears, of course. Are these founded fears?!? Idk! And if he hadn't intervened, for better or for worse (regarding his motives), Noah and SiYeon's quality of life that has been significantly diminishing throughout SiYeon's illness would just continue. At a minimum, as a decent human being, I doubt he would have abandoned the child and mate like that. Or just have simply taken the child away. He could totally do that. No need to involve Noah at ALL. He's actually giving Noah a lot of the cards. It's more a matter of how Noah feels about the proposal. If he feels trapped, he feels trapped. I don't have a bad feeling about DoYoon, that he would mistreat Noah once he accepts the offer. We may or may not see DoYoon's family try to intervene in their lives, but then again, if THIS were to OCCUR, we'd have a 120 episode manhwa and not just 50 with a happy ending or something. Noah could just flat out refuse. And I would like to see how DoYoon would have reacted after THAT!!!
Idg why Yejun will look like pityful in this situation like he is being blackmailed. Well if he is thinking straight, Do yoon doesnt look like he is blckmailing him instead trying to gaslight him to take the offer. First Doyoon's family cant easily take Siyeon away and remove his paternity rights. Duh. No matter how much money they have. Or he could easily ask his best friend to marry him and register as Siyeon's dad coz it looks like his bff will do anything for both of them. If Yejun is thinking straight, he would realise that the fact Doyoon approached him means HE NEEDS HIM. Family who are against Doyoon would def see Siyeon as a hindrance and Doyoon will be at an advantage in their fam power struggle as he has a Hyper Dominant Alpha already as his heir. Yejun shouldve taken advantage of the situation and bring some deal at the table bec it's a win win situation for both of them- Siyeon's illness will get help and his future secured. Whether or not it is a good or bad rich family, rich family situation will always be a mess AND knowing Doyoon also offfered marriage on the table means his imprinting on him has something to do with his illness OR MAYBE HE'S STILL WHIPPED WITH YEJUN AND JUST MAYBE PRIDEFUL TO ADMIT OR OTHER REASONS. He doesnt have to include marriage tbh, he can just say register Siyeon as his son that's it. This leads Yejun to an advantage to still be with Siyeon every step of the way and instill his values to him. He shouldve made a condition on the table as well.
BUT WELL, this just a rant. I mean we wont have a story to read if the author made it that way lololol
